Wordpress fast-cgi-bin 403禁止错误

Question

I had a wordpress blog on a free host. It went through a maintenance days ago. Now I am not able to log into the dashboard.

I noticed in the wordpress webroot, there is a new .fast-cgi-bin directory.

When I try to login to myexampleblog.com/wp-admin/ , it shows

Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /.fast-cgi-bin/php53.cgi/wp-admin/index.php on this server.

I searched and tried to add Options +ExecCGI into a .htaccess file.

But it seems not working. Any idea on how to solve this?

Answer 1

This is me guessing:

The hosting company updated the way the applications are served through their webservers (either added fastcgi support or reconfigured it) and somehow they borked the configuration.

Write an email to them with a full error description / message and ask them to look up the directory or php permissions, or what ever they guess what caused the error. (Since problems started with their update.)

If you did the update yourself, and the hosting is coming without any support, you should have ssh access to the server. In that case ask someone you know with proper sysadmin skills to fix it, should not be a big deal.
